Have you ever had a long-term relationship? Has it ever felt like you’re putting in more effort than your partner? It’s possible your partner feels the same way about themselves, and maybe it’s time to talk about what each side puts in. Or maybe, more specifically, what each side wants from the relationship. Try not to let it get to the point you need an empowerment song for yourself…

A-OK
Pull up my dusty shoes
Out for color with nothing to lose
Shining deep, there’s something under my skin
Years coming in, coming strong
Working my body ’til they tell me I’m wrong
Got a deep affliction crawling ’round in my bones
Tell me ’bout my fever
Beat me with my stones
Getting bigger
Punch the trigger
I’m all about the passion
Catch me passing for a singer
If I’m right, leave me be
I’ll be catching up on Zs
Lord, I’m hoping I’m wrong
Learning lessons isn’t easy
Tell me
Am I up all night for more
Am I waiting on the shore
Am I sleeping by the door
I’m aching
So tell me who I’ve got to thank and
Show me my fantasy, show my my way
Though I may know you were playing a chase
Walking away and I’ll do what you say
A-OK, we’re A-OK
Spell me a name with ribbons and gold
You’re on my mind until I die old
I’m up for everything, do what I’m told
Ashes to ashes, my life turned to mold
I do your dirty
You’re feeling flirty
If you want another I’ll be keeping on my shirt
Easily deceived and so you know that I’m a keeper
I’ve been waiting on a princess, all you gotta do is be her
I’ll do the chores and
I’ll raise the kids
You can keep being a baddie looking out for higher bids
I’ll do the stressing and the dressing and confessing to your god
When you’re out again to see a friend and sharing out your bod
Show me my fantasy, show my my way
Though I may know you were playing the chase
Walking away and I’ll do what you say
A-OK, we’re A-OK
I know you’re out there to meet with new men
I’ve seen the messages from my best friend
I know it’s happened again and again
A-OK, we’re A-OK
